A Peek At Core 20

Hampton Roads Transit is developing a new concept for local bus service.

The idea behind the “Core 20” is to deploy a new network of better quality bus routes that will more effectively connect the region.

Supported with state-of-the-art technologies and improved customer amenities, Core 20 routes would have 15-minute service frequency during rush hour, 30-minute service frequency during the day, and less frequent service late at night. Core 20 routes would provide service on weekends, with 30-minute frequency on Saturday. Weekday service would run from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. The plan would also deliver service to parts of the region that have very little today.

The plan is to connect more workers to jobs, improve access to education and workforce training, support current and new businesses, meet demand for new transportation options across all population segments, and help unleash the region’s potential.
